My baby was very very sleepy the first few days as well. She is 2 weeks old now and more alert but still sleeps a lot. My first cried a lot due to colic by this time so I'm hoping that this one is a calm baby. Although recently she has even a little more fussy because of gas but still pretty mellow!

I'm wondering the same thing. My first son slept but I don't remember him sleeping nearly as much as this little girl, and she will be a month old on the 28th. She sleeps soooo much! I try to keep her up but it's nearly impossible to keep a sleepy baby awake. She wakes up to eat, and she does have some awake time for an hour here and there, but I'm wondering when she will be up more. I keep thinking if this was my first I'd get so much sleep- but not with a 2 yr old running around. Unfortunately she will sleep all day in the bassinet or papasan chair, then at night she wants to be held to sleep. Hoping this changes soon, because I've been sleeping sitting up with her. I need a good night sleep in my bed!
